I just purchased a maroon knob for the hood cowl lever. The knob slips onto the steel lever but what do you recommend to use to keep it attached? I was thinking a super glue or does this knob snap into the lever. This cowl is a center hood type just outside the windshield.

I would use one of the two part epoxy glues. Cecil.......

The end that the knob goes on has a sort of serrated edges on it and when the knob is tapped on the end of the arm it will stay there. If for some reason it is a little loose then a dab of glue should do it.
I just did this last week. My old one was tough to get off but after I cleaned and painted the arm up I just tapped the new knob on and it stuck nicely.

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.
I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you smile

When I redid the dash in the COE I used a little bit of JB weld. It was a little loose, but never again. grin
